$A$ rubber ball is taken into the deep sea such that its volume decreases by $x \%$. The bulk modulus of rubber is $K$ and the density of sea water is $\rho$. The depth $h$ to which the rubber ball is taken is proportional to $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$:

  • A
    $\frac{Kx}{\rho g}$
  • B
    $\frac{\rho g}{Kx}$
  • C
    $\frac{K}{x \rho g}$
  • D
    $\frac{x \rho g}{K}$
